Guests Introduce Their CML Practices

In our exclusive interview, Drs Chan and Hunter discussed the integration of asciminib (Scemblix) as a first-line therapy for patients with CML, optimal treatment sequencing in CML management, and how findings from the phase 2 OPTIC trial (NCT02467270) have influenced ponatinib (Iclusig) dosing strategies in patients with chronic-phase disease. They also addressed the role of mutational testing in guiding treatment selection, strategies to mitigate adverse effects, and the evolving role of stem cell transplantation in the treatment paradigm.
